I'm sorry, I know this is just me being stupid, but: I can't figure out who these characters are or what time period the events are taking place. All the characters look the same to me and I thought there were flashbacks that didn't come back to present day. Like, weren't the lesbian teachers talking about their past loves a few issues ago? Did a flashback actually occur?

Anyway, looking at chapter 15. I originally thought this was the blonde teacher who is half of the lesbian couple. This is a different teacher, correct? Next, Naoko Ritsu-san won an award last year, apparently, so what time frame does chapter 15 take place in? On page 1, we see him accept an award, and the narration says it was a year ago. On page 2, it looks like the girl (is this the teacher?) is at the ceremony for Naoko Ritsu-san receiving the award, a year ago? Are the blonde characters the same character or different characters? Is this present day or a flashback? Regardless, what does this have to do with the school? Are these events taking place in/around the school?

And chapter 16? Who the heck are these characters? Again, I thought that this was the dark-haired female half of the lesbian couple in flashback. It's not, right? Or, is this the girl who was in love with the dude that the other girl was in love with that threatened to unalive herself in the earlier chapter? Is the male character on page 1 Naoko Ritsu-san? If so, when is this?

Sorry. So confused.

so basically, at the end of chapter 13 this new duo of the art genius and his teacher were introduced, thats the new mini story arc were in now

milf yuri is too powerful for how little of it we really have, sal jiang is the best candidate to deliver the most potent form of it too

PEDO ALERT WEEWOO WEEWOO

So when the boy is interested in the teacher, suddenly she's a pedo?

I don't think she has any romantic, or even sexual, interest in him. She's probably going to play and try to break him out of envy.

of course we can give her the benefit of doubt here since she hasn't physically "laid hands on" her student yet, but by all accounts her reaction to the confession in chapter 14, and her suggestive phrasing in chapter 13, seem to indicate that she is interested and planning to do so. This series doesnt shy away from sexuality so I don't expect there to be a fakeout
I can definitely see the angle that she probably sees this more as an opportunity to leech off of his genius or play with him then shatter him rather than as such desiring him, but in the end it's still looking to be leading towards predation

This was a nice read I liked it, it gave me Dorohedoro vibes but yuri

For sure!! God I love that show.
Thought I blacklisted the guro tag on here, but I'm glad this one came up. Does it even qualify as guro? I thought that tag was for some kinda sexual perversion related to the gore. The violence x romance were mutually exclusive in my eyes. Either way, dig the story.

guro, or rather eroguro, actually refers to "erotic grotesque" not erotic gore, not to say gore doesn't come under the grotesque but its not inherently the fixation of it as an artistic movement

little thing but the wording was a bit odd at the end of that last chapter posted, does she just mean like, jolene wouldn't say that sorta stuff about etiquette and being proper, and what shes supposed to do like her tutors and shit would?

  • Aya's hickey, on her neck, is red.
  • The "Sold Out" message, on Japanese vending machines, is a red light.
  • Aya's hair is "red". In the top right panel of page 4, Aya's hair flutters right in Shu's field of vision.
  • Maybe her lipstick is red too (hard to tell).

So, the color "red" represents everything that makes Shu think of Aya and frustrates her, for unstated reasons.

the drunk guy probably had a red face as well

I love how they think that female knights were a normal enough thing :-D
(and this comes from a fervent researcher of historical examples of female knights in medieval Europe and actual author of a published book on the subject matter whose title I won't state so not to dox myself)

dunno if they "think" that or are unconcerned with historical accuracy in making knight yuri

Now that I'm rereading this with the benefit of hindsight, it brings up a thought: Is Kawazoe into women?

Early on, Haruki mentioned Kawazoe living with her boyfriend. However, the story makes it increasingly clear that Haruki just does not realize that women can be anything other than straight early on and would probably be the type to see a picture of a lesbian wedding and ask where the grooms are. It's possible that Kawazoe left some things vague and Haruki jumped to conclusions, just like she did with Miya.

The only thing we really know about Kawazoe's partner is that they live together and take turns cooking for each other. However, Mizuno does see a potential risk in Kawazoe falling for Haruki (I guess in the event that she breaks up with her partner). Though Mizuno leans a bit more towards being paranoid, (like when worrying about Kiyo, though that's partially on Haruki for being a bit clueless and it's even mentioned that her previous partners have suspected her of cheating before so it seems to be a matter of her not setting boundaries properly) she's generally a good judge for these kind of things and certainly has shown to be more perceptive than Haruki. She's also been hanging out with Kawazoe long enough to be able to get a good read on these things.

Not only that, Mizuno does mention in chapter 56 that there are at least 4 people in DAP who have their eyes on Haruki. She seems to include herself and outright names Terauchi as another. There's a chance the remaining 2 are just unnamed characters who never showed up, but assuming they're not, the remaining named characters at this point in the story are:

  • Masuda
  • Kawazoe
  • Shinjou
  • Yokouchi

Yokouchi is out since we know he's more interested in Mizuno. Shinjou went into full workaholic mode right away and hasn't really been there that long at that point. That leaves Masuda and Kawazoe as the most likely candidates for named characters. I think Kawazoe being into women is quite likely and it's funny to think that Haruki has just been "surrounded" the whole time and just completely failed to realize it.

Also, some other things I didn't realize the first time around:

  • DAP = SAP
  • WoohooEats = Ubereats
  • Soldforce = Salesforce
  • Moonbucks = Starbucks (I caught this one the first time, but just listing them all out)

OMGHGHGGGG I CAN'T BE THIS SERIES IS BEING TRANSLATEDD YOU ARE DOING GOD'S WORK TYSMM for uploading it on here otherwise I wouldn't have known this
I only read the Chinese translated version of this on a website but holy cow it feels so different and I didnt realize that there were spicy chapters in this novel (the Chinese one didn't translate that part due to it's laws there
Overall I very appropriate the effort u put in to translate this novel and I love that u use different fonts in translation :D I enjoy it so much I reread this like 3 times it's sooo good

I'm surprised they even bothered translating it to Chinese if they needed to censor it. I guess it left out a few key parts involving Mizuno and that's why it feels so different.

looks at the 1.4 billion people who natively know chinese, yea idk why they bothered

Have a round of applause!
I personally think all that X-sexual and X-oriented stuff to be pretty weird to my ears and thus I don't like hearing about that kind of stuff in the stories I read.

But this just works and although I feel complicated at times when reading this enigma, I don't feel like I am being forced to accept any political ideal or like I'm hearing a lecture on this theme.

And I'm a sucker for symbolisms, so that's really a plus for me!

Although I am still a bit peeved that there are some things I just can't know in the end, I am satisfied with our two gay couples and one fresh out of the closet man!

x-gender and such is just what they call that particular thing, why do you dislike hearing about it?

The chapter titles are in fact 100% accurate to the original Japanese chapter titles

This is slightly pedantic, but no, the TL has made some little adjustments. It's usually just to make the Japanese pun (usually with "baka") into an English one. For instance, "Gravitwit" was originally just "Baka Gravity" -- I bet that sounds like something in Japanese that a native speaker would catch, but "Idiot Gravity" does nothing like that for us.

Other times the TL has chosen to match the English title of a work. "Baka Man Star Force", a currently-timely Mega Man Star Force reference, is the one that got me curious -- I just had to know if it was originally "Ryuusei no Bakaman" to match the JP title. (It was.) "Frozedense" is the title that loses the most. Japan likes to give Disney films more descriptive titles; their version of Frozen is "Ana to Yuki no Joou" (Anna and the Snow Queen). So the JP chapter was "Ana to Baka no Joou" -- except there's a SECOND change. Anna's name has gone from アナ (katakana, standard for foreign names) to 穴 (kanji, making it the word "hole" -- like in Nozoki Ana or Ana Satsujin). Presumably that ties in with the second-page line about a "gaping hole in the stage we've set". Good luck trying to do anything comparable with the single word "Frozen"!

Ah, bugger...should've known. Thanks for the heads up.

i mean this is all stuff you'd expect during the localization process, the main conceit of "reference mixed with a joke about idiots" is transfered, as are the things being referenced themselves, the frozen joke is one that as the poster said just cant be rendered the same with the english title

Nice to have aro rep! Not 100% happy with Lily's comments on it, but Lily is kind of a rough person all around so its only fair :P

she was right that the way runa was contacting mai after the breakup was very thoughtless in regards to her feelings tbf, id agree the idea of the breakup being a matter of convenience isn't the best way of describing it tho, but of course she's obviously being defensive of mai so isn't the most charitable about how she handled that either
